Louis W ann W ill Discuss Whitman In Speech Today
WASHINGTON. March 20—(U.E)
| —Sharp words crackled and tempers exploded in the senate late to-i day as action on the $4,830,000,000 works-relief program was halted by an effort of fighting liberals to increase the fund to $9,000,000,000.
Facing protracted debate on this proposal and on amendments calling for the purchase of 50,000,000 ounces of silver and the printing of “greenbacks” to finance the new project, leaders did not expect a final vote for another 48 hours.
La Follette in Fight Sen. Robert LaFollette. Prog.. Wis., opened the battle to increase the appropriation with the statement that $100,000,000,000 could be expended today on necessary public works. He warned that the nation would not emerge from the depression until millions had been re-employed and the purchasing power of the people increased.
He still had the floor when the senate recessed and will resume his argument tomorrow. Party leaders are confident the amendment will be defeated In face of persistent warnings from administration officials that the higher amount would shatter the credit of the government.
Senator Loses Temper
Nerves on edge as the result of weeks of debate and controversy and their tempers short, senators blasted away at one another when Sen. Bronson Cutting, R„ N. M.. introduced an amendment to earmark S30.000.000 of the fund to finance schools for the remainder of the school year.
The proposal brought the bitter charge from Sen. Millard Tydings, D., Md., that the entire bill “is not one for relief—it is a pork barrel bill.” He protested that state legis latures were not called upon to pass taxes to care for the education of their children.
The amendment was adopted 55 to 25.
Earlier in the day the senate had rejected an amendment by Sen. Thomas Scholl, R., Minn., which would have forced the liquidation of all new deal corporations within 90 days.
Measure Revised
The measure was revised so that territories of the United States could be included as potential beneficiaries. Then, reconsidering action of a few days ago, the senate specified that works to be under taken under the new program must be superintended by existing agen cies.
This amendment was added to calm the fears of some senators that rivers and harbors work would be done by the department of commerce or that the bureau of fish eries would superintend highway construction—all of which was possible under the bill until it was re vised.
Nordskog To Speak Before Lions Club
Today noon. Dr. John Eric Nordskog will address the Lions club at the Miramar hotel on the subject “Evolution of Social Reform Movements.”

“Walt Whitman, the Apostle of Democracy” will be the topic of Dr. Louis Wann, English professor, when he speaks today at 4:15 in 206 Administration building.
“Whitman’s conception of democracy has been distorted. People think of him as an apt believer in democracy without his having any recognition of its problems and faults. I will let Whitman himself present his views of both the merit? And faults by reading from his own works, both his prose and his poetry.” stated Dr. Wann.
In Dr. Wann’s book. “The Rise of Realism.'’ which is one of five volumes of “The Anthology of American Literature,” he treats Whitman as the most important poetic stimulus for the new realistic movement in this country.

Scientist Reports Mars Observations
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz.. March 20.—
(ITJE)—A scientist reported on the planet Mars today, and found the greatest cloud masses since 1920 and 1918. At the Lowell observatory here, one of the famous astronomical plants of the world, the report was made, which corrected earlier observations on wind velocities, also.
Heavier clouds have been forming for the past two weeks on the planet, E. C. Slipher, observatory astronomer, said. The cloud increases are similar in extent and total effect to those of 1920 and 1S18.
Recent observations have belied earlier belief in high Mars winds, he said. Twenty-five miles an hour is the highest rate discovered.
Clouds attain heights of from 14 to 17 miles above the planet surface, Slipher revealed.

“I think 111 get spanked, if It doesn’t come off all right.” Herbert opined.

Natator Lowers Time for Every Distance from 500 Meters to Mile
By Leroy S trine
Under the watchful eyes of five official amateur athletic union timers, Jimmy Gilhula, Trojan swimming captain, swam to 16 new American records in the S.C. pool over a 20-yard course yesterday afternoon. Gilhula broke every record from the 500 meters to the milt.
His official time for the miie swim, 20 minutes and 13 seconds, lowered the former record held by Ralph Flannagan, a member of thi: Miami-Baltimore swimming team, by 35.6 seconds. Gilhula also broke marks in four additional distances, but his times will not be recognized as an insufficient number of officials caught the times on their watches.
Mark Down 2 Seconds
Gilhula began his record swim by clipping two seconds from the 250 yard mark. This was one of his unofficial times. Gilhula then hit his stride, and held the pace to break the 500-mster, 600-yard, 700-yard, 800-yard, 830-yard, 900-yard, 1000-yard, 1100-yard. 1200-yard. 1300-yard. K mile, 1400-yard, 1500-yard, 1600-yard, 1500-meter, and mile records officially.
Jack Medica. University of Washington swimming sensation, and arch rival of Gilhula. was the former holder of the 500-meter record which Gilhula broke by 2.6 seconds, as he began his official record tour. With the exception of the 1300-yard record, held by Ame Borg of Stockholm, Sweden, all of the
Agent Captures 14 Chinese In Nation-wide Opium Ring
Cinematography Classes To Hear Producer Today
CHICAGO. March 2^—<U.E) — A young customs agent, making his rounds in Seattle, was approached 15 months ago by a suave, Americanized Chinese who talked with glib indiscretion of millions that might be made by closing an eye to certain matters.

He told about it today at a hearing before U. S. Commissioner Edwin K. Walker where Chin Guey, Chinese importer, is fighting extradition to Seattle. Guey and 13 others have been Indicted there on
charges of operating a $3,000,000,-000 opium smuggling ring.
Hanks was introduced to the ring at an exotic cercmony, complete with eerie candle light, incense and a “blood oath.”
Beneath a Joss god a Chinese took a small knife, slit his own wrist, then slit those of Hanks, Chin P?.k and Chin Guey. brothers. Chin V/ah. another brother, wielded the knife, the agent said.
“We joined wrists,” Hanks said, “and then I was told I had become one of the brotherhood. I was warned that to take the blood oath of brotherhood and break it meant death at the hands of Chinese gun-m»n hire^to kill traitors.

Louis W ann W ill Discuss Whitman In Speech Today
WASHINGTON. March 20—(U.E)
| —Sharp words crackled and tempers exploded in the senate late to-i day as action on the $4,830,000,000 works-relief program was halted by an effort of fighting liberals to increase the fund to $9,000,000,000.
Facing protracted debate on this proposal and on amendments calling for the purchase of 50,000,000 ounces of silver and the printing of “greenbacks” to finance the new project, leaders did not expect a final vote for another 48 hours.
La Follette in Fight Sen. Robert LaFollette. Prog.. Wis., opened the battle to increase the appropriation with the statement that $100,000,000,000 could be expended today on necessary public works. He warned that the nation would not emerge from the depression until millions had been re-employed and the purchasing power of the people increased.
He still had the floor when the senate recessed and will resume his argument tomorrow. Party leaders are confident the amendment will be defeated In face of persistent warnings from administration officials that the higher amount would shatter the credit of the government.
Senator Loses Temper
Nerves on edge as the result of weeks of debate and controversy and their tempers short, senators blasted away at one another when Sen. Bronson Cutting, R„ N. M.. introduced an amendment to earmark S30.000.000 of the fund to finance schools for the remainder of the school year.
The proposal brought the bitter charge from Sen. Millard Tydings, D., Md., that the entire bill “is not one for relief—it is a pork barrel bill.” He protested that state legis latures were not called upon to pass taxes to care for the education of their children.
The amendment was adopted 55 to 25.
Earlier in the day the senate had rejected an amendment by Sen. Thomas Scholl, R., Minn., which would have forced the liquidation of all new deal corporations within 90 days.
Measure Revised
The measure was revised so that territories of the United States could be included as potential beneficiaries. Then, reconsidering action of a few days ago, the senate specified that works to be under taken under the new program must be superintended by existing agen cies.
This amendment was added to calm the fears of some senators that rivers and harbors work would be done by the department of commerce or that the bureau of fish eries would superintend highway construction—all of which was possible under the bill until it was re vised.

“Walt Whitman, the Apostle of Democracy” will be the topic of Dr. Louis Wann, English professor, when he speaks today at 4:15 in 206 Administration building.
“Whitman’s conception of democracy has been distorted. People think of him as an apt believer in democracy without his having any recognition of its problems and faults. I will let Whitman himself present his views of both the merit? And faults by reading from his own works, both his prose and his poetry.” stated Dr. Wann.
In Dr. Wann’s book. “The Rise of Realism.'’ which is one of five volumes of “The Anthology of American Literature,” he treats Whitman as the most important poetic stimulus for the new realistic movement in this country.

Scientist Reports Mars Observations
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz.. March 20.—
(ITJE)—A scientist reported on the planet Mars today, and found the greatest cloud masses since 1920 and 1918. At the Lowell observatory here, one of the famous astronomical plants of the world, the report was made, which corrected earlier observations on wind velocities, also.
Heavier clouds have been forming for the past two weeks on the planet, E. C. Slipher, observatory astronomer, said. The cloud increases are similar in extent and total effect to those of 1920 and 1S18.
Recent observations have belied earlier belief in high Mars winds, he said. Twenty-five miles an hour is the highest rate discovered.
Clouds attain heights of from 14 to 17 miles above the planet surface, Slipher revealed.

Natator Lowers Time for Every Distance from 500 Meters to Mile
By Leroy S trine
Under the watchful eyes of five official amateur athletic union timers, Jimmy Gilhula, Trojan swimming captain, swam to 16 new American records in the S.C. pool over a 20-yard course yesterday afternoon. Gilhula broke every record from the 500 meters to the milt.
His official time for the miie swim, 20 minutes and 13 seconds, lowered the former record held by Ralph Flannagan, a member of thi: Miami-Baltimore swimming team, by 35.6 seconds. Gilhula also broke marks in four additional distances, but his times will not be recognized as an insufficient number of officials caught the times on their watches.
Mark Down 2 Seconds
Gilhula began his record swim by clipping two seconds from the 250 yard mark. This was one of his unofficial times. Gilhula then hit his stride, and held the pace to break the 500-mster, 600-yard, 700-yard, 800-yard, 830-yard, 900-yard, 1000-yard, 1100-yard. 1200-yard. 1300-yard. K mile, 1400-yard, 1500-yard, 1600-yard, 1500-meter, and mile records officially.
Jack Medica. University of Washington swimming sensation, and arch rival of Gilhula. was the former holder of the 500-meter record which Gilhula broke by 2.6 seconds, as he began his official record tour. With the exception of the 1300-yard record, held by Ame Borg of Stockholm, Sweden, all of the

In 1932, Gilhula, then only 1* years old. first gained national prominence, when he shattered the existing world’s inter-scholastic record for the 100-yard free style with a time of 53.3 seconds. That same year Gilhula went to Japan as ft member of an American swimmi:ig team coached by Robert Klpuh. Olympic coach, and Director of Athletics at Yale university. He defeated, among others. Buster Crabbe, of the United States, and Makino, of Japan. Both of these swimmers later received international fame as a result of their showing in the past Olympics. He won the 400 meters free style against the best Japan had to offer, but, due to illness, he was defeated to the Olympic games by Crabbe and a Jananese natator.
